Points are at a premium in a shortened hockey season and the Columbus Blue Jackets are doing what they can to stay in the thick of a crowded Central Division. After what feels like an all-too-familiar series split once again, this time with the Chicago Blackhawks, the Blue Jackets started the week with a rare one-game tilt at the Carolina Hurricanes (7-3 shellacking), before facing the Nashville Predators on Thursday and Saturday at home.
In this edition of The Cannon Cast we talk about:
- Patrik Laine benched after reportedly mouthing off to an assistant coach, is he long for CBJ?
- Thanks to guys like Laine, Jack Roslovic, and Cam Atkinson, the offense might be breaking out?
- Weird decision to use Nick Foligno in OT?
- Mikko Koivu retirement might give others more chances in the lineup/
and much more!
